《Last Wish System 》Chapter 335: The Natives of the Western Continen
Advertisement
Yale's group landed on a beach full of sand, but there were some sharp rocks for all the place creating a bad combination while walking due to the constant changes of the ground from extremely soft to hard and sharp.
The incommodity was so high, that although there wasn't any risk of getting harmed by mere sharp rocks, the group decided to advance flying some centimeters above the ground to make their path easier.
They didn't dare to fly high because they didn't know if the people of the western continent had defenses against flying enemies. Moreover, if they were found while flying high, it was easier for them to be mistaken by others as enemies that were preparing an assault.
However, at the distance which they were flying from the ground, it would seem that they were walking if everyone were flying with the power of flying of those who reached at least the Grandmaster Rank.
Of course, since the female wolf and Yale were using wings to fly, even at a low height, it was evident that they were flying. Wyba needed to use wings to fly, but she was in her beast form resting in Yale's head, so she didn't need to make her wings appear at that moment.
"Let's land here. In the ground, we will leave a track to follow, but that is better than being discovered trying to hide our track."
The beach wasn't big and next to it there was a forest area packed with trees and vegetation.
Yale still didn't know which his next quest would be, so he felt that he might discover it after some natives from the western continent found them. Of course, Yale wanted that their meeting was amicable, and it didn't turn into a battle, but if the other party was unreasonable and wanted conflict ignoring their words, he was also ready to teach them a lesson.
After landing, the group started to walk, and no one was left on the backs of the wolves, but Wyba didn't want to walk, so she remained on Yale's head.
"Yale, if I understand our original plan well, we are trying to act as merchants, but Julie isn't here, is this alright?"
After walking for some minutes, Sebe spoke out of boredom.
"Don't worry. We can rely on that later, but right now it isn't wise. After all, we didn't even know what kind of species there are on this continent, so it will be hard to believe that we are here for trade with them."

Although they came from another continent, Yale had decided to hide that as long as they could hide it, so it would be weird if they were to trade in an area without knowing anything about it. Although it wouldn't be weird for a group of merchants to be traveling around the continent, it would be too weird that they didn't have any knowledge of the areas they were going.
Of course, if they just told that they came from another continent, it would be easier to explain their reasons for trade and lacking knowledge wouldn't be important, but both continents didn't have any connection with each other for more than thirty thousand years, so it was rather unpredictable how would the natives act towards them.
"Aren't we being too cautious? Yale, didn't you come to this continent in your past life?"
Swordmad didn't question Yale's decisions and didn't plan to start doing it, but since he knew about Yale's past life, he felt that there should be some hidden reason for being so cautious.
"There isn't any hidden reason."
Yale understood what Swordmad wanted to say even if the words spoken by him didn't match his true intention.
"I explored the whole world in my past life, including the other ocean, but at that time, that ocean was still normal, and as far as I know it was around the same time when I visited this continent. Moreover, my memories are incomplete, so I don't remember anything about this continent, and given how much time had passed, that kind of information won't be reliable even if manage to recover some of my memories."
The time when Liye explored the world was when he was young and couldn't leave to explore other worlds, so it happened when the world itself was young and not too much time passed since its creation because Liye and the world had the same age.
Thus, even if Yale managed to remember something about the western continent, it would probably be incorrect.
"The only thing I know for sure is that this continent isn't dominated by humans but for species that came from other worlds in the past."
The humans from other worlds usually ended in the eastern continent, but since that continent has always been purely controlled by humans, the other species chose to live on the western continent. Of course, some humans also chose the western continent to live, but usually, humans preferred to live in a place when they dominate others.

After all, half-beasts were humans that transformed into that by experiments of other species during the invasion, and from then their species was born, but looking into the past, the ancestors of the half-beasts were humans.
There were some species of the western continent that joined the continental war due to the enticement of outsiders, and since that war ended, no one dared to go from one continent to the other making that both continents didn't have any understanding of what was happening on the other side.
Yale doubted that there was still hatred for things that so many years ago, especially when the western continent was part of the attacking force, and Liye didn't eradicate all of them as he just went for the masterminds.
No one spoke after that while the group advanced, and the only sound they could hear besides their own steps was that of the small stones in Yale's hand.
Although it wasn't too normal to play with some small stones while traveling, it was quite a boring travel no one commented about Yale's actions.
Yale suddenly stopped, and the sound of the small stones in his hand disappeared. Seeing Yale's sudden action, everyone stopped just before hearing six sounds of metal hitting something hard.
"It isn't polite that you attack us from the shadows. Show yourselves!"
After hearing Yale's words, the others finally understood the use of those small stones and the origin of those six sounds. Six small stones had hit six small needles that were shot towards them.
They didn't understand why their Spiritual Sense failed to sense their presences, but even Yale couldn't detect them. However, with his mastery of the Time Law, he had seen that attack before in a premonition, so he grabbed some small stones to block it.
In fact, even after blocking the attack, Yale still didn't know where the enemies were hiding, but he hoped that his act was enough to scare them and force them to show themselves openly for fear to offending Yale.
"Humans! Why are you here? Humans aren't welcome in our territory!"
A sharp voice sounded from the forest, and at that moment everyone detected that person with their Spiritual Sense. Moreover, the one who spoke was rushing towards them.
A moment later a figure appeared before them, but another three appeared from the other directions, and until they appeared, no one noticed of their presence.
"I don't know how a mere human detected our presence, but... Wait! Why is there one of us in your group? No, I have never seen him, is he from another tribe?"
The one who spoke was the same who did it before, but he was speechless after meeting with Shirk because the one who spoke and the other three were Lizardmen and they looked extremely similar to Shirk.
Initially, from a distance, they didn't notice about Shirk at all since they only attacked because they saw some humans walking for their forest.
Yale quickly used the Divine Death Eyes to check as much information as possible from the four lizardmen before replying.
"We are sorry for intruding into your forest. We were traveling by the coast to exchange some goods when a monster attacked our ship, and we appeared in front of this coast. We aren't sure of where we are right now or what exactly happened to us."
Yale obtained some information from those Lizardmen, and he used it to create a fake story for them.
One of the five Lizardmen had a huge scar which was the main reason for Yale's fake story.
That scar was made by a sea monster that was a Law Master in the Space Law and that Lizardman met it while traveling in a ship from one town to another to exchange goods. However, when he awakened, he was on the nearby coast and ended joining the lizardman tribe of the others since he didn't know how to return home.
Yale's story followed the same pattern, so he had confidence in that those Lizardmen would believe it. After all, Yale doubted that any of them could fully understand the acts of that sea monster that managed to become a Law Master.

Polyrhythm Time -- A Bard's Tail
Have you ever met someone who loves what they do so much that they'll skip sleep, food, love and safety to pursue it? What happens if that kind of person encounters a different dimension, yet holds on to their love of music, and specifically of rock drumming.When the world ended at the end of 2057, Kevin Snackenbridge slept through it. He'd been drumming all night. tl;dr-- System eats world -- Monsters and magic ---- LitRpg -- Practice, not levels and stats ---- MC Bard -- support class -- low power ---- MC chooses music over survival skills --tl;dr Kevin trips into the Internal Strength Dimension where Thaumaturgy is king. With the help of a talking plant and several vicious monkeys he learns that the rule is "Change or die." Kevin changes, but remains firmly a drummer/Bard in this high fantasy setting. This is Kevin's adventure, and that of the friends he meets. Kevin has the soul of a real musician. He loves music, specifically rhythm and drumming, and would give his left nut if it would help him drum better. He's a rock drummer, and his language is that of a rock drummer: slanged, duded, and frequently laced with profanity. He focuses on music, and makes decisions that even the author doesn't approve of. However, that means all his decisions are Kevin's decisions, not those of a system-optimizing power-gamer. There's points (All of Arc 2) where he wanders aimlessly. Goals seem foreign to him at points. What would you do if you were a musician, and the world fell apart and you no longer had an audience or band-mates. You'd be kinda lost. Kevin is. Arc 2 is a lot of Kevin not knowing what to do, going with the flow, and not being articulate enough to know that he doesn't know what to do. 1. Chapters start short near 500 words, and grow to 12-1500 by ch.100 2. Chapters daily
